Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game
#521 - Royal Turmoil 11
“Hmph! What arrogance, acting like you're certain to succeed.”
Selena retorted coldly, her words as sharp as ice blades.
But in reality, her heart was also filled with anxiety at this moment.
After receiving Sollen's plea for help, she knew the situation was critical and didn't dare to delay for even a moment, rushing over as quickly as possible, her heart set on helping Sollen resolve the crisis.
However, she didn't expect that she would run into James, the person truly responsible, and be stopped in her tracks.
She was truly worried about Sollen's situation, fearing that if she was delayed for too long, something terrible might happen.
Selena was very satisfied with Sollen as a subordinate, whether it was his ability or talent, and she had even begun to plan to bring Sollen to the higher plane.
Naturally, she didn't want anything to happen to Sollen.
James was already a perceptive person, and seeing Selena rushing over so hastily, he immediately realized that her arrival was unusual.
The two of them were deadlocked in this magnificent palace, glaring at each other, neither willing to give way first.
The air seemed to be filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, and the atmosphere was so tense that it was hard to breathe.
Just then, Sollen and Rebar limped into the palace with difficulty.
When they stepped into the palace and looked up to see the two adults sitting opposite each other, both of them couldn't help but show shock.
They never expected to run into these two here, and countless questions and concerns about the current situation surged in their hearts.
James and Selena, who were originally concentrating on confronting each other, felt a surge of anger in their hearts when they saw their respective subordinates looking so wretched, and both wanted to scold them.
James frowned as he looked at Rebar, who was missing an arm and covered in blood and wounds, his eyes full of displeasure.
Selena felt heartache when she saw Sollen's weak state, and she was even more angry at the actions of Rebar and others.
However, both of them were people with extraordinary bearing, and they knew that getting angry at this moment would not help, so they forcibly restrained their emotions.
James took the lead in breaking the silence, asking with a gloomy face, "What exactly is going on?"
His voice revealed a hint of authority, his eyes fixed on Rebar, as if he wanted to get a satisfactory answer from him immediately.
Selena, on the other hand, saw that Sollen, although he looked seriously injured, was safe and sound, and now that he was right in front of her eyes, she felt a little relieved and felt that there was no need to worry too much for the time being.
So, she looked at Sollen, her tone softened a little, and said softly, "Sollen, go down and heal your wounds first."
Her words were full of concern, knowing that the most important thing for Sollen at this moment was to recuperate his body and recover from his injuries.
She would take care of the rest.
When Sollen heard Selena's words, a warm current surged in his heart.
He bowed slightly to Selena and said gratefully, "Thank you for your concern, Your Excellency, then I will go down first."
After speaking, he slowly retreated and found a relatively quiet place, preparing to recuperate well, so that he could recover from his injuries as soon as possible.
Rebar stood awkwardly in place, his head lowered, not even daring to look up at James, his uneasy appearance fully revealed, and he could only silently wait for James's disposal.
The atmosphere in the entire palace became more and more oppressive because of his nervousness and guilt, as if a heavy boulder was pressing on everyone's hearts.
Finally, Rebar mustered his courage, his voice trembling slightly, and said, "Your Excellency, the person you wanted could not be caught."
The words were like a heavy bomb thrown into the silent palace, instantly breaking the original silence.
James's originally calm face changed instantly.
After hearing these words, a strong killing intent flashed in his eyes, and his gaze was like a sharp blade, cold and bone-piercing, making people feel chills.
He never expected that Rebar would mess up the task he had assigned, and it was such a crucial matter, which made the anger in his heart suddenly rise.
"Why?" James suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, gritting his teeth, word by word.
His voice revealed an unquestionable question, as if Rebar would suffer his thunderous anger in the next moment if he couldn't give a reasonable explanation.
Seeing this, Rebar's body trembled slightly, hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his finger and pointed to Sollen, who was preparing to heal his wounds, and hurriedly said, "This person is the biggest mastermind behind this failure."
His tone was anxious, as if he wanted to push all the responsibility onto Sollen in order to reduce his guilt.
After all, he knew James's methods for not completing the task, and at this moment he could only try his best to argue for himself, hoping to escape this disaster.
When Sollen heard Rebar's words that pushed all the responsibility onto him, his footsteps paused, and he snorted coldly in his heart, but he didn't immediately refute, but stood there quietly.
He knew that the situation was delicate at this moment, and everything depended on how James and Selena handled it.
He would wait and see what happened first, but he also secretly became vigilant, guarding against James who might be unfavorable to him because of Rebar's words.
After hearing Rebar's words that pushed the responsibility to Sollen, Selena laughed inappropriately.
The laughter seemed particularly abrupt in this tense and oppressive palace, but it also revealed a different meaning.
While laughing, she cast an approving look at Sollen, and then said loudly, "Not bad, well done!"
Her words were full of recognition and praise for Sollen, as if Sollen's ruining James's plan was something that made her extremely happy.
James frowned when he heard Selena's words, turned his head to look at Selena, his eyes with a hint of vigilance and displeasure, and said with a hint of threat in his tone, "Senior, do you want to interfere in this matter?"
He knew Selena's character very well.
Since she had expressed her position like this at this moment, she must have been determined to stand on Sollen's side.
But how could James easily give up, after all, the person to be caught was crucial to him, and it was related to whether his subsequent series of plans could be carried out smoothly.
Selena didn't care about James's unfriendly attitude at all, just shrugged indifferently, raised her chin slightly, and replied with a bit of pride, "He is my man, I naturally have to protect him.
As for the person you want to catch, if you have the ability, go catch him yourself!"
